"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

22kg snatch (pr), SLDL, Crawls
this went well. my teres stayed open, mostly, and my overhead position didn't hurt although I didn't have all the time I wanted/needed to prep the overhead position.
But the outcome was solid.
160 reps in sets of 8/8 with the 22 kg and it was easy peasy. My "breathe easy' technique for snatches continues to work. I don't need that much intra abdominal pressure to stabilize my back anymore so I don't need power breathing which keeps the heartrate lower and my endurance higher. I can't do anatomical breathing yet but it's coming. that's when high reps will be much much easier.
But I still won't go over 10 reps per side. I want to accelerated the bell as fast as possible as well as do the volume
Snatch
16 kg x 5/5
20 kg x 4/4
22 kg x 8/8 x 10
160 reps (recent) pr
7840 lbs
I haven't done this many reps with this kind of weight in forever. It wasn't too long I was very happy with sets of 5/5 and 100 total reps with this :)
Single Leg deadlift ( SLDL) left side only
2 12 kgs x 6 x 4
this was interesting. definitely got better as I did more sets but it was a challenge. Need to do this asymmetrically as my right leg is already way to far ahead. this is good. I tried to alternate left leg lunges with this but it destabilized me too much.
stability ball pike up to hs
2 sets of 3
playing with this to prep for handstand work. very easy and solid. felt right
crawls
3 laps of 65 ft
1 x 100 ft
strong here too. fitness level is definitely up. recovery between sets very quick. After each lap rest in full squat position. getting deeper each day
